Doctor Livingstone, I presume

Ujiji museum.
Two great explorers, David Livingstone and Henry Morton Stanley met in Ujiji in 1871. Stanley said the celebrated phrase: “Doctor Livingstone, I presume”.

Today, a small and naïve museum captures this moment in this museum exposing two papier mache figures representing these two personages, plus some paintings.

To get top Kigoma first, and then to Ujiji, you have a 40 hours journey by train from Dar es Salaam.
From Kigoma you can catch a boat and navigate during 12 hours to Bujumbura through the Lake Tanganyka (that was what I did and the journey was great!) You need a permit that will be issued to you for a small fee after 24 hours.
Well, Stanley massacred many Africans in Congo, and entire villages, that is why I only admire Livingstone.
